Curious to know how many other people felt like the first grader in the letter at the end of the Classroom Rewards article. The whole time I was reading it, I was remembering a time in elementary school when I forgot to get something signed, so I did not receive our school’s reward system (a fake dollar bill you could save up to buy trinkets every few weeks.) I vividly remember sitting in my seat in class and crying because this was the one and only time I had ever forgotten a homework assignment. I’m curious on others thoughts when reward systems aren’t used as punishments (nothing was taken away from me) but it still felt like a punishment.
